SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT ARTICLE 46 – ACQUISITION OF SENIORITY SECTION 1 – PROBATIONARY PERIOD A new employee shall work under the provisions of this Agreement but shall be employed only on a thirty (30) working day trial basis, during which period the employee may be discharged without fur- ther recourse, provided however, that the Employer may not discharge or discipline for the purpose of evading this Agreement or discriminating against Union members. On the thirty-first (31st) working day within one hundred and twenty (120) consecutive day period, the employee shall be placed on the regular seniority list and the employee’s seniority date shall be the first day worked within the one hundred and twenty (120) day period. SECTION 2 – SEASONAL EMPLOYEES No seasonal employee shall be hired prior to October 15th of each Calendar year. Any employee hired after October 15th thru January 15th of each calendar year shall not accrue days towards seniority. Seasonal employees, when hired, shall be notified they are seasonal by signing a seasonal-employee notice. Prior to peak season, the opportunity to perform driver helper work during peak season will be offered to seniority part-time employees, providing that this driver helper work will not interfere with their regularly scheduled duties. This will be done by posting an interest list by the second (2nd) Monday in September for seniority employees to sign signifying their intent to be available for driver - 195 - helper work for the duration of peak season.

However, in cases of unexpected absen- tees or to prevent service failures, supervisors may perform such bargaining unit work as necessary to complete that day’s (or night’s) work schedule.
